The president doesn't carry "the football" anyhow. If this is true it was the Secret Service that misplaced the codes. Not Clinton.
More right wing lies.....like we have grown to expect.
Wrong. I looked it up because that was my first reaction. The President carries a credit-card sized card with codes that, when used, establish his identity and authority as Commander-in-Chief. They are used in concert with the "football."
The charge is being made by former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, General Hugh Shelton.
If the charge is true, it was a dangerously reckless act by the President whose obligation was to report the loss as soon as he was aware of it. It was an inexcusable dereliction of his duty.
